Chapter 937: Everything Returns to Academic Discussion



The two looked at Veronica Yip and found that she was only looking at Cao Yong. That’s right, why do they care about Xie Wanying’s childhood friend? They should be concerned about whether Senior Brother Cao will be implicated by these two guys.

“If she dares to harm Senior Brother Cao, I won’t forgive her.” Shen Xifei said angrily.

Even though Cao Yong usually ignores them, everyone in the entire hospital knows that Cao Yong is a good person.

"What are they talking about?" Huang Beibei pricked up her ears to listen.

Li Qian'an and Yue Wentong, who were standing closest, were quite surprised and wondered what was going on and why classmate Xie suddenly asked about the case.

"Brother." Xie Wanying had thought it through. Everything needed to be solved through academic discussion. She asked Brother Cao, "If a person feels a little different after being hit by a major event, is there something wrong with his brain?"

When Cao Yong suddenly received her academic question, he was completely stunned. Fortunately, I knew that her thinking was different from that of ordinary people when I talked to her about relationship problems last time, so I thought about her words carefully and said, "You should be talking about post-traumatic stress disorder, PTSD."

Xie Wanying's eyes brightened up as she was suddenly enlightened. Senior Brother Cao is indeed a neurosurgeon. With just one sentence, he unveiled a certain layer of the human body in front of her.

She had never considered this direction before, mainly because: "But doesn't PTSD require the person to have experienced major trauma? If it's not an earthquake, a car accident or some other severe natural or man-made disaster, can it be called PTSD?"

...

...

Cao Yong carefully considered her words and felt that he had sensed something. He decided to continue discussing the disease with her in detail: "Everyone is different. For the same thing, some people can get out of trouble quickly, while others can't. Clinically, it is usually diagnosed as a mental illness. Psychology has its own set of theoretical research, but when it comes to medicine, it must be based on anatomy. Psychological behavioral cognition is definitely related to brain function. Each person's brain has nearly 14 billion to 16 billion neurons. As a medical scientist, our understanding of the brain is only a very superficial part."

"Brother, what you mean is that this person is born with a fragile mind, but from anatomy, it is not ruled out that this person's brain is different from that of ordinary people, which leads to his psychological fragility."

Hearing her analogy, Cao Yong nodded in appreciation: "You can think of it that way. Therefore, to judge PTSD, we cannot simply judge whether this person has PTSD based on whether it was a major accident. The correct approach should be to see whether the patient's clinical manifestations meet some of the characteristics of PTSD. For example, whether this person is addicted to drugs and food afterwards, and whether his temper is more easily irritated than before, and he is easily panicked and fearful. As you said, he is like a different person."

My senior brother's words are like turning stone into gold. Describing the characteristics of the disease helps in diagnosis. Undoubtedly, after comparing themselves to the situation, Lixuan's parents clearly suspected that her son was suffering from PTSD. Brother, your judgment is correct.

"If this situation continues for a long time..." Xie Wanying was very worried about her childhood friend, knowing that this disease was difficult to cure.

"If the illness lasts for more than three months, it is considered chronic PTSD. Chronic disease is definitely more difficult to treat than acute disease." Cao Yong did not deny her concerns.

"Is there any way?" Xie Wanying asked her professional senior.

"If you want to treat it, there are medications, but the effect is definitely average. Medicine's research on the brain is too shallow. The most important thing is psychotherapy. The effect of psychotherapy in clinical practice has always been Schrödinger's cat."
